We present a numerical model for dynamic simulation of colloidal particles attached to a fluid interface. A new coupling method is proposed for combining Newtonian dynamics for colloidal particles and the lattice Boltzmann method for fluid phases so as to account for the wetting properties of particle surfaces. With this feature, capillary interaction of colloidal particles, in addition to elec...

there is a new technique to measure total body water named bio-electrical impedance analysis (bia), used in healthy subjects and patients. bia determines the total body water (tbw), fat-free mass (ffm), body cell mass (bcm), extra cellular water (ecw), and intra cellular water (icw) in subjects without significant fluid and electrolyte imbalance. there are several methods such as segmental bia,...

Airway mucins, the major component of airway mucus or apical surface fluid that covers the entire surface of the airways, have been shown to possess multi-factorial functions that are necessary for first line defense, the major function of airway mucus. In this mini-review, I will provide some evidence, both theoretical and experimental, that the multi-factorial functions of airway mucins are m...

a simple and mild one-pot three-component reaction for the preparation 1,4-dihydropyridines has been developed from various aldehyde substrates, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds (dimedone) and ammonium acetate (hantzsch method) in the presence of a catalytic amount of phospho sulfonic acid (psa) as an efficient and heterogeneous solid acid in etoh at room temperature. preparation of psa is straightforw...

Three-component reactions have emerged as useful methods because the combinationof three components to generate new products in a single step is extremely economical,among the multi-component reactions. A green, simple, efficient, and cost-effective procedure has been carried out by the synthesis of dihydropyrimidinonesin Biginelli’s condensation of ethyl cyanoacetate, aldehyde and urea or thio...

In this research, Fischer Tropsch synthesis (FTS) has been modeled in the fixed bed chromatographic reactor for the first time by applying a rather complex dispersed plug flow model for fluid phase and linear driving force (LDF) model for adsorbent. Model equations are dynamic, multi-component, non-linear and heterogeneous including reaction and adsorption simultaneously Complex kinetics fo...

   Drilling fluids are an essential component of the rotary drilling process used to drill for oil and gas on land and offshore environments. The injection of this nano particle into drilling fluid increases the viscosity levels fluids. In these experiments, the rheological properties of the fluid including apparent viscosity (AV), plastic viscosity (PV), yielding point (YP), mud c...
